3 syllables · Spelled by the National Institute of Korean Language's rules for foreign names.
Why it sounds a little different
- Korean doesn't stack consonants, so a short “eu” (ㅡ) slips in — that's where 프 comes from.
- Korean has no F. It's written ㅍ (p), so the F in Freya comes out as a soft P.
- R and L share one letter, ㄹ — Korean doesn't tell them apart.
Say it in Korean
제 이름은 프레야예요.
Je ireumeun peureya-yeyo. — My name is Freya.
To be polite, Koreans add 씨 (ssi) after a name: 프레야 씨.
